Classes in pre-ballet, ballet, jazz, tap, modern, hip hop, leaps & turns, and lyrical are offered in a variety of levels with emphasis on technique, musicality, body awareness and the development of self-expression through movement. Classes are taught in a caring, positive atmosphere by a faculty of qualified, experienced instructors. Limited class enrollment ensures individual personalized attention.

In addition to classes, students may participate in a variety of special programs: choreographic workshops and performance opportunities with local and nationally recognized artists, field trips to area dance events, dance films and special lectures.
